STILL SMALL AND PROFESSIONAL —NOW WITH VCM EFFECTS

The 01V96VCM delivers the performance and reliability of Yamaha's acclaimed digital live sound and production consoles in a remarkably compact design that is perfect for home and professional applications where space is limited or maximum portability is required. It may be small but it can handle up to 40 inputs, and can be cascaded if more are required. And now, in addition to the many improvements that were implemented in the 01V96 Version 2, the 01V96VCM comes with a selection of Yamaha's unsurpassed VCM effects built in. Of course the entire console - effects included - features 24 bit/96 kHz operation for ultimate resolution and sound quality that will satisfy the most demanding applications.

BUILT-IN VCM EFFECTS Previously available as "add-on" effect packages for top-line digital consoles, Yamaha's highly regarded VCM Channel Strip processors and REV-X reverb are now standard features on the 01V96VCM. These extraordinary effects are based on innovative Virtual Circuitry Modeling technology that actually models the original analog circuitry — right down to the last resistor and capacitor. VCM effects are capable of capturing subtleties that simple digital simulations cannot even approach, going beyond simple simulation and delivering the truly musical performance that makes classic analog gear invaluable even in today's digital production environment. 

The 01V96VCM includes the Channel Strip package with COMP276, COMP260, and EQ601 effects that bring vintage analog compression and EQ to life in the digital domain. It also includes the same REV-X algorithm that is behind the unmatched performance of Yamaha's stand-alone SPX2000 signal processor, delivering the most natural reverb and ambience available anywhere.  CHANNEL STRIP    This compressor and EQ effects faithfully captures the unique saturation effect of analog circuitry. Includes five models that employ VCM technology to recreate the sound and characteristics of classic compression and EQ units from the 70's. Fine-tuned by leading engineers, and featuring carefully selected parameters in a simple interface.

• Compressor 276 (mono) / Compressor 276S (Stereo):  Recreate the fast response, frequency characteristics, and tube-amp saturation of the most in-demand analog compressors for studio use.
• Compressor 260 (mono) / Compressor 260S (Stereo): Features faithful modeling of the solid-state VCA and RMS detection circuitry of the late 70's for live sound reinforcement applications.
• Equalizer 601: Delivers the unique characteristics of 70's analog EQ circuitry, featuring graphical editing capability on both the console and PC displays. 

REVERB
These reverb effects employ the latest "REV-X" algorithms first introduced in Yamaha's SPX2000 Professional Multi Effect Processor. The REV-X programs feature the richest reverberation and smoothest decay available, based on years of dedicated research and development.    REV-X Hall, REV-X Room, and REV-X Plate programs are provided, with new parameters such as room size and decay envelopes that offer unprecedented definition and finer nuance control.  The REV-X Hall and REV-X Room programs have a very open sound, while REV-X Plate delivers a brighter tonality that is ideal for vocals.  All models deliver dense, warm reverb that does not interfere with the natural timbre of the source. 

SEAMLESS ADD-ON EFFECTS SUPPORT
01V96V2 provides full support for four ADD-ON EFFECTS packages (each package is sold separately). The advanced effects and signal-processing capabilities provided by these packages are accessed and operated via the console's internal effect processors in the same way as the built-in effects.  A MAJOR STUDIO MANAGER EVOLUTION  The Studio Manager application has undergone a major evolution, and is now a host application that can support multiple editors (such as the DM2000 Editor and SPX2000 Editor) within its framework. This offers many advantages including total project recall, and future support is planned for recall from Steinberg Media Technologies GmbH's Nuendo®/Cubase™ via the Studio Connections. Online and offline editing of multiple 01V96 units is now smoother than ever. A variety of other enhancements include Add-on Effect support, multiple windows, and improved overall operability through shortcuts, keyboard operations, drag and drop, and using the console's User Defined Keys to remotely open and close windows.
